Rooney injury blow leaves Pearce with striker headache for Holland friendly
Leading the line: Danny Welbeck is one of three inexperienced strikers

On Sunday Sir Alex Ferguson said both Rooney and midfielder Tom Cleverley would not report for England duty this week. ‘They’ll be out,’ he said. ‘Wayne has still not recovered from his throat infection, so hopefully we’ll get him ready for next Sunday.’

Cleverley has another ankle injury after the problems that have restricted him to just nine games for Manchester United this season.

The 22-year-old said on Twitter on Sunday night: ‘Very disappointed not to be joining up with the England squad tonight.

‘And again, it isn’t a recurrence of the injury, it’s the other leg.’
